"A teacher’s greatest achievement is a student whose mind has been opened, who has
actually learned something about learning. Such a student will be able to read literature
with a fresh understanding, and see in that literature an expression of the human
condition; view the world from a clearer perspective, understanding that each of us
is only part of a greater whole; and enjoy music and art as never before.”EducationM.A., English Studies, Murray State University B.A., English and Music (Vocal Production), UNC Charlotte BooksYou Pay More Attention to the Dog: Practical Advice about Marriage, 2004.
